Leadership is a word with many different meanings, depending on who hears it and who uses
it. What does it mean actually? To lead? Is there anything to lead at all? To
lead who? To lead where? Does language, use of words, cultural and historical diversity make a difference in leadership?

We will address these and other questions in a workshop on “Leadership & Multicultural Teams”.We live in a globalized world, where everybody meets someone from another culture.Teams with people belonging to only one nationality and sharing one common language are rare these days.

Gabriela Sirbu is former journalist, has a Master Degree in Peace and Conflict Transformation from UiT and a specialization within practical psychology from the Norwegian Gestalt Institute in Oslo. She is the founder of “Migration of emotion”.

MultiSpråkKafé is hosted every Monday at Verdensteatret in Tromsø, by an eager group of people who wanted to create an arena where people can speak their own language, or practice a foreign one. 

Jorge Diaz, who is the founder of MultiSpråkKafé, is going to contribute with technical help. We can say that in this corona times, all of us needed to learn another language, which is “online” language.Jorge Diaz is a telecommunication, film and sound engineer, which makes him one of those people who already know how to learn this new “online” language and support those who are in need of it J.

Together, Gabriela and Jorge are going to introduce you to some facts and some perspectives over multicultural work teams and leadership. The way we use communication can be interesting in such teams.

The event is online on Zoom, in English, and free of charge. We only need you to register here so we know where to send the zoom link. 

See you there!
